Good basic entry-level camera

by labyrinth , Nov 27 '99
Pros: Decent function for an entry-level SLR
Cons: Can't push ISO, metering gets off in slightly complex lighting situations
The Nikon N50 is well, an entry-level camera for beginner photographers. I think it is a very good addition for any beginner in photography.

The camera has all the basic functions, and you can switch to all AUTO modes with 4 easy presets,...

Great Camera!

by Pameladugan , Feb 05 '00
Pros: easy to use
Cons: can be expensive
The Nikon N50 was given to me as an anniversary present a few years ago. As I had been using all manual focus camers up until this point, this was a change for me.

The features of this camera area all easy to use, even for the beginning...

All the Camera I will ever need...

by jystrebler Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jul 20 '01
Pros: Lightweight, easy to use, many different pre-programmed modes
Cons: built-in flash is useless
I'm not much of a photographer, but I can tell the difference between badly shot photos and ones that were done with better equipment. Instamatics are basically gone, now. You have disposables, digitals and SLRs.

I had a digital camera and...

Worth 1,000 Words

by woodync1 , Jan 02 '01
Pros: easy to operate, lense options
Cons: shutter repeater time is slow
My wife bought me this SLR in 1994 for Christmas. I love to take pictures and wanted a good camera that would hold up and we had always believed Nikon represents high quality in camera action and lenses.

This camera has a metal...

Good beginner Nikon

by cjprom , Mar 26 '01
Pros: takes all Nikon AF lenses, accurate metering, better built than successors
Cons: pushbutton interface, no cable release
I've had this camera about 3 years, and have taken quite a few nice shots with it. I agree with the other reviewers that the meter is very accurate. It produces very well saturated slides. It deals with complex lighting situations reasonably well, and...

Poor Nikon

by bnlitin , Jul 20 '00
Pros: Durable, inexpensive
Cons: Slow AF, Bad User Interface
I received the N50 as a gift and I thought at first that it was a very good camera. The N50 is well built (as are most Nikons).

Let me also say that a good photographer can take great pictures with almost any camera. The N50 is really more...

Mixed feelings...

by rmansell , Mar 13 '01
Pros: Good metering, reasonable AF, well built
Cons: Horrible interface, limited functionality
I bought a Nikon N50 about 3 years ago, and have used it quite a lot since then. I like the build and feel of the camera in my hands, the autofocus is fairly fast and is accurate, and the metering is excellent. There are very few occasions when the...

80/20
by rcplayer ,Sep 19 '06
Pros: Great quality pictures
Cons: No automatic power shutoff. Forget to turn off, you lose a $10.00 battery.
I've had my Nikon N50 camera for several years. Overall, I've been very pleased with my photo results. It's important to me to shoot close up shots capturing those tiny details. With the Nikon N50, I'm able to achieve the most beautiful shots you can imagine. This camera also gives me the capability to capture landscape, portrait, night scenes and action shots. Also,recently I bacame a grandmother for the first time, and I look forward to those close up detail shots of our little one which I could not aquire with my digital camera.
I have experienced a slight problem with the camera body.
The right side of the camera front has a rubber type coating and unfortunately, the coating on my camera rubbed off, although it did not interphere with the performance of the camera. I was a little disappointed this happened, since it does help to keep a firm grip on the camera.
Over, I recommend this camera for all your photo needs. I keep it loaded with a fresh battery at all times. It's 80 good, 20 not so good.
